Stupid Power Steering Hoses!!!

[coolguywalt]

The freakin' Hydroboost stripped the threads of the new hose I had special ordered! Going to cost me another $20 and a week of not driving the Buick...anyone else have this problem?

HYDROBOOST HOSES

THE HYDROBOOST USES TWO HOSE DESIGNS. 1979 AND OLDER USE CONVENTIONAL 5/8" AND 11/16" INVERTED SEAT AND THREAD SIZES. 1980 AND UP USE 16MM AND 18MM O RING TYPE THREADS. CHECK YOUR PORTS BEFORE SCREWING IN HOSES! WE ALSO CARRY A-N ADAPTORS TO ACCOMODATE STAINLESS BRAIDED HOSES FOR THE "RACE" LOOK, AND THEY ARE MORE FLEXIBLE. AND YOU CAN MIX AND MATCH PORTS BY CHANGING A-N ADAPTORS BOB AND MATT @ POWER BRAKE SERVICE
